Anakin's Upgraded PodRacer -Silver Surprise- 1/2

2,863 NotNewHere  1.7 years ago

AG8 Canopy
AG1 Magnetic Clamp (Stabilizes pods when docked)
AG2 Repulsor Drive (Hover Engines) [Trim UP]
AG3 Main Engines
AG7 Gyro Stabilizers
VTOL UP/Level Extend/Retract Pod Nacelles (disengage magnetic clamp FIRST when extending pods)

Designed to be easily controllable thru a single stick. Yaw and Pitch are set to the right stick for easy maneuvers.

You can roll (try it, it's a nice trick) with yaw on the left stick but it doesn't really help at all)

To take off
-Activate Gyro, Magnetic Clamps and Hover Engine
- Slide Trim UP to above 90% to engage Hover
- Engage main Engines and throttle up
- Disengage Magnetic Clamp
-VTOL UP to extend pod nacelles

Yes these Podracers go over 2x as fast as dictated in the lore, but I tested both speeds, and 400mph just seemed slow in SimplePlanes for a Podracer.

I suggest zipping around Yeager Isle for tons of fun.

ENJOY!
